Neerob

Great selection, delicious food. What more can you say. Very polite staff and the manager is very nice. Food can be made fresh to order, but there’s so much food to choose. Just amazing.

BEST TEA EVER! And I love the appetizers the most especially the chicken patties and samosas.

What can I say that the New York Times already hasn’t? Best, freshest and most authentic selection of Bangladeshi food in New York along with Haat Bazaar in Jackson Heights. You can’t go wrong with a simple daal and bhorta or you can go hardcore with some kacchi biryani. Yes, it’s not close to most people in Manhattan, but it’s well worth an expedition if you’ve never had Bangladeshi cuisine before.

I was looking for a good Indian food. I ordered Tandoori and Kabab. Both were so bad. Hell they were not even fully cooked. I truly felt that the chicken will start running any second. I also ordered Bihari kebabs. Worst I mean worst! The freaking aroma and again half cooked.
Then I ordered tea. I mean what are the odds that a simple thing as tea can be bad. But even the tea was disgusting. I haven’t eaten in Bengali restaurants before but I doubt they are as bad as this one.
I yet have to find a good Indian Restaurant in Bronx. May be it’s because I am from queens and Manhattan and the Indian restaurants are hands down better there.

I am a regular customer at Neerob — it is some of the most authentic & delicious south asian food you will find in the Bronx.
Some tips when ordering — some of the employees speak little-​no english, but don’t feel intimidated. You can walk right up to the counter and point to whatever you think looks good. You can then go sit down in the dining area, and they will bring out the food to you. A meal here costs around 10 $ and will really fill you up. The workers here are all super nice, and even throw in some free appetizers occasionally.
Biryani — Bangladeshi food is known for its flavorful biryani. Always a solid choice. Don’t bite the small spices in the rice!
Fish — The curry that it is cooked in can be mixed with rice, and packs some heat. Delicious, but be prepared to have to deal with small bones.
Chicken curries — Also pretty spicy and flavorful. Good portions of meat.
The kebabs and dry meats are OK, but I think you are better off getting the above items.

Beware everyone the new night manager is rip of he overcharged n argues back he don’t respect customers I found something on my table he did not apologize n he told me everybody’s home has it please double check the bill if he gives I been coming there since they open the old management was excellent sorry Neerob please change the manager thanks

one word. extremely good flavor and taste. they know their spices.

Everything is cold. They warm up the food in the microwave. That is so nasty to have meat, eggs and rice just sitting there all day prob since the day before. They’re so cheap they can’t even keep the food warm. Usual Bengali place. Its like eating left overs.

Impossible to order food here very strong language barrier. Can’t order take delivery.
Doctor office tried to order sent a cab and made us pay for it. Not cool!

The place has pretty awesome food and is always busy. They have very friendly staff. I definitely recommend to anyone who is in the neighborhood. Not too many Bengali/​Indian food places around this neighborhood. Especially food that’s good and cheap!

Cheap and insanely awesome food from Bangladesh. You can get all types of food. I came here a lot during Ramadan and got their iftar plates which are awesome after a day of fasting. They have a nice home made taste and feel to the food which makes it feel like your eating legit food from Bangladesh. They have an awesome.
Their byriani is amazing. You can choose a variety of different types so if you are into chicken, lamb or whatever they have it. There’s a nice large selection of different types of fish as well. The portion size for what you pay for is great. You’ll find yourself stuffed and unable to move for a bit afterwards but it’s worth it for the awesome food you get to consume while you are there.
I highly recommend this place as a an affordable south Asian resteraunt. The food is great and they have quick service to get you eating as fast as possible.

The food has potential. The eggplant was generous, the fish (little things in mustard oil) tasty. The price is right too. Minuses include the grade pending in the window (these guys have been around long enough to know what it takes to pass an inspection; it really isn’t that hard), the expired veggies on display with time cards stating that they’re good until 5:45 (about an hour ago– this is not an invitation to get rid of the time cards btw) and the world’s worst waitress a girl who has to be told to give me utensils with my to go order and then drops the utensils while handing them over, leaving me to either catch them or ask for new ones. (I caught them, in case David Stern is reading this.)
Took off a star post food poisoning.

We ordered only 2 samosas 1 kebab and 5 pieces of chicken. The food took so long time to serve because the lady forgot our order. She kept saying sorry for that and when we pay she asked me 25 dollers. I should run because of parking so I just paid that. And now I can see the real price in here. It was around 12 dollers. She charged me more because I look like foreigner.
So this is not a place for the foreigners. Check the price before you go. You never can find any menu in that restaurant.

Food is alright. Intimidating to walk inside because the locals usually cut you in line during order and you’re not sure what to do. But anyways, I’m not really sure how the ordering goes. But I usually get the goat or beef biriyani with some chicken curry. It’s usually 10 bucks for the combo where it’s usually 80% rice and 20% chicken curry. But one time the lady charged separately and it was $ 14 dollars. Granted the portions was SLIGHTLY more but not sure if I always have to specify to make it a combo.
Their samosa is good but a bit oily.
Oh, food is precooked and they microwave it upon ordering. Whatever.

I used to come to this place here and their, I’ll tell you their busy because they’ve been open forever but why do business if you’re not willing to come meet and greet and most importantly give customer service.
The food here is alright, not good or the best, but you don’t want to order after 9pm.
It’s a good spot if you’re looking for a nicely decorated spot but the customer service is just horrible. I was their with my family a few days back for my mothers birthday, we had to walk to the waiter or clerk lady/​guy for everything, they would not come to check up on us like the employees at Premium Sweets (across the street) do. The Owner Kukon, was sitting all the way in the back and asked how I am when I walked passed him to use the restroom, I didn’t answer ofc I smiled off his question.
My point is the place was good a few years back like on 2007 – 9 and now it’s just horrible, employees don’t speak English properly or dress the best, they have the clientele now it’s like they gave up. It sucks and I feel bad I’m writing this review but I hope they read this and step their game up! Oh, the tea is bad!

I enjoyed my meal at this establishment. It was a little confusing when it came to having a sit down meal. You have to order at the steam table area then they bring the food to you. This isn’t completely unusual but it is in the US.
The food was full of spice! Which I loved. So why the 3*? It was really hard to wrangle a staff once you were seated for your meal which came out in segments, but not in the appetizers first type segment. When I attempted to inquire about a sauce, they brought me over ketchup… My friend is a vegan so she wanted to ensure that the sauce wasn’t dairy based, which it was (yogurt). Since most of their patrons appear to be Bengali, they’re probably not familiar with such inquiries.
All in all, the meal was definitely worth repeating.

I have been coming here for a long time and used to love this place for desi Bangladeshi food. now they renovated the whole place but the food went down hill. they also hiked their price and portions became smaller… So all in all save ur time and money to go to Neerob parkchester (unless u live there) .go to jackson heights for BD food.

Come to Neerob just before 6 p.m. on a Saturday and it’s clear this steam table and attached dining room serve as the locus of a local community. There are women coming to pick up meals to be served back at nearby houses, a long line of teenagers waiting to use the one sink to wash up before the maghrib prayer, while whole families chat furiously after finishing their meals.
The range and quality of the Bengali fare means that word of this modest restaurant has spread beyond Parkchester, and on a trip to the Gun Hill Brewery a friend and I decided to stop in. Despite obviously being not one of the locals and there being a general sense of pandemonium as people went to order, I was given detailed and quite useful service when constructing a meal for two. My companion was pescatarian so while I got a couple of chicken lollipops, otherwise we got fare that both could eat.
It arrived, freshly heated, to the dining room a couple of minutes later. Dhal puri is minus the gravy that dominates the Caribbean version of the dish, while the yellow dal is smoother and less spicy than Punjabi lentils. What is quite flavorful is the stewed spinach (I believe this is called saka) that we ate with pieces of naan. The bread was different too, much more like a dense pita than either the bubbled contraptions that appear in Indo-​American cooking or the very flatbreads that might come out of a subcontinental tandoor.
The food was fresh, unwatered down to American tradition and wonderfully different. This entire feast — including a not overly-​sweet-​or-​heavy mango lassi — cost $ 21. I wish it wasn’t so far away as there are lamb chops, oversized beef kebobs, yellow-​crusted langoustines and chicken curries to be sampled on future visits.

Amazing service and even more amazing food.
I felt very welcome and the portions was good for the price.
Great place. AAA

I’m a big fan of Neerob. On an unassuming street in the Bronx lies this huge wondrous haven for fans of Bangladesh food. If you don’t know what Bangladesh food is like, I would say it’s most similar to Indian food.
You order at the counter and in all of my experiences, the staff there has been very friendly, even though at times there are language barriers. Last time I was there, the owner came out to help me and he spoke perfect English and even gave me some samples to try while I was deciding what I wanted to order!
They are very accommodating, you pretty much order what you want in whatever quantity you want. I’m not exactly sure how they calculate the bill, but it always seems reasonable.
I like to get a plate of the rice (can be shared with another person), a chicken curry (YUM!), and a mixed plate of vegetable dishes to share with the table.
Give it a try, you won’t be disappointed!
